Gao Wu Comes to the Grocery Store

Chapter 23 Banquet
The time for the Countess Anis finally arrived, but Kududu still didn't wake up.

Lu Ming still didn't leave Kududu in the Kungan Hut.

Instead, it continued to be packed in the carry-on bag, and transformed into a dress with the magic transformation skill, and Lu Ming came to the gate of Seraph's headquarters.

Sacre, who was in front of the gate, seemed to have been waiting for Lu Ming for a long time.

After seeing Lu Ming coming, he couldn't wait to pull Lu Ming and walked in another direction.

"Why did you bring me here? Aren't you going to a dinner party with the Earl?" Lu Ming frowned and looked at the surrounding environment.

This is the corner of a mansion, a luxurious carriage parked in front of the door not far away, surrounded by a small group of servants.

"It is the Earl who is going to the dinner, and you are just the accompanying servant.

"Go there first and wait, then the Earl will take you to Minister Victor's dinner."

"how long?"

"Wait for a while, the Earl still needs to prepare the dress for the dinner." Sacre replied.

Lu Ming suddenly had a bad premonition, especially since it was only around three o'clock in the afternoon, and the dinner party would have to wait until six o'clock no matter how early it was.

What is even more disturbing is that the Earl Anis is a woman, and a young woman.

Preparing for a noble dinner party or something...

Sure enough, as Lu Ming expected, time slipped away so quietly while waiting and waiting.

If it weren't for the promise to go to the banquet to inquire about news, and this banquet requires Anis to bring Lu Ming to enter.

Lu Mingzai quit, and finally Earl Anis walked out of the mansion leisurely after five o'clock.

It has to be said that Earl Anis is still very rich. After careful dressing, she looks very different from the laziness Lu Ming saw last time.

At this time, Countess Anis looked extremely bright, and her long chestnut hair had been pulled up, forming a hairstyle that Lu Ming only thought was extremely complicated.

The purple robe she wore before was also replaced with a pure white dress, giving people a charming feeling.

Just thinking of the aura that Anis showed at that time, Lu Ming quickly turned his attention away.

This is a hidden beast, not something that Lu Ming's current small body can provoke.

After coming out, Anis seemed to have not seen Lu Ming mixed in the crowd, and boarded the luxurious carriage with the help of a maid.

Under the driving of the coachman, he slowly moved towards the other direction of God's Blessed City.

"This ring is called the Sincere Ring." Anis's soft voice suddenly reached Lu Ming's ears.

After looking at the unremarkable servants around, Lu Ming knew that this was what Anis said to him alone.

Just when Lu Ming was puzzled, a silver ring flew from the carriage into Lu Ming's hand.

"The effect of the ring is to make the person who talks to you unconsciously speak the truth."

Lu Ming was startled: "Sacred weapon!"

Before Lu Ming finished sighing, Anis chuckled again: "It's a pity that it can only be effective for people below the first-level professional!"

"The strength of the person who uses it will also be suppressed below that of a first-order professional."

"So it's a Xibei product." Lu Ming said to himself in his heart.

If this ring ignores strength, then it is really powerful. Although it is okay now, it is too restrictive.

I checked it out with my mental power, and found that it was still a destructive device, but unfortunately it was not very useful, and I didn't know whether it was because she was not qualified to enter the label of a destructive device, or Anis was simply too lazy to introduce these irrelevant things.

……

The family that Minister Victor belongs to is also one of the twelve noble families in God's Blessed City.

Therefore, even though this dinner is not of high standard and is only a daily social occasion, there are still many people who come to participate.

At this time, Anis had already chatted with several top nobles including Minister Victor.

As the host, Minister Victor is a hale and hearty old man.

Another participant this time is Wayans' father, Ramon Eusta.

He is a middle-aged man who looks very capable.

This is also the reason why Lu Ming was asked to come here to inquire about the news.

Anis dragged the Lord back.

Lu Ming turned his target to the servant brought by Ramon.

Even if the status of a servant who can be taken by Ramon is not high, it will not be low in the mansion.

After excluding a few of them who had mastered extraordinary strength, Lu Ming focused on a cook brought by Ramon.

A cook came to such a banquet because before the banquet started, Anis had someone inform Ramon that she wanted to try the chef's specialty desserts, and asked Ramon to bring them here.

"Hey, have you seen the Yan Lingcao I put here?" Taking a break, Lu Ming leaned towards the chef.

"No, I didn't see it." The chef didn't raise his head, and was still concentrating on making his snacks.

Gently touching the sincerity ring on his hand, Lu Ming said: "Brother, which adult brought you here, why haven't I seen you before?"

"I came here with Lord Eustace."

"Also, you are annoying, I still have things to do."

The chef drove Lu Ming away with a sentence. Not only did Lu Ming not get angry when he heard it, but he looked happy instead. The effect of this sincerity ring is really good.

"Don't worry, the banquet will last a long time, let's chat casually."

"I see that Lord Ramon of your family looks very capable among several nobles."

The chef curled his lips: "I want to do things, not you. We adults have always been very powerful!"

"That's right, I heard that the theft of the Holy Grail is related to Lord Ramon." Lu Ming randomly picked a rumor about God's Blessed City.

This is not aimed at Ramon alone, almost all the ministers and nobles who can enter and leave the palace have similar rumors in God's Blessed City.

"You're talking nonsense, how could Lord Ramon have anything to do with the theft of the Holy Grail? That's a false accusation."

"Then how do you say it's the same as the real thing?"

"It is also said that the large amount of food that the centaur obtained before was given by Lord Ramon."

"Well, this is a business. The Eusta family is in the grain business. No matter where the centaur buys grain, of course it flows out of the Eusta family."

Lu Ming was overjoyed: "It's really informative!" The rumors about food were even more illusory, and Lu Ming just said it to open up the chatterbox.

Who knew it would happen: "How do you know that the centaur's food is sold by the Eusta family."

"My uncle's cousin's...is the person responsible for connecting with the centaur."

"But food is food. I believe Lord Ramon will definitely not have anything to do with the Holy Grail." Even if he was sincere, this is the cook who has served the Eusta family for generations and still maintains absolute trust in Ramon.

However, this was enough, and Lu Ming took out enough information from one person without intending to.After asking a few more questions without gaining much, Lu Ming focused on another servant.
