Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor
Chapter 41 Mr. A’s Party
Hobert didn't know what Xio and Forsi talked about, but after they reunited, Hobert felt that Miss Magician's hostility towards him had been reduced a lot.
Under the guidance of the servant, the three people met Viscount Gray Lint.
Gray Linte looked at Hobert: "Have we met somewhere?"
"Yes, Viscount." Hobert smiled: "I had the honor to appreciate the Viscount's grace on the dance floor at a banquet."
After all, Christine was a brigadier general, so of course she would attend or host some banquets. There were a few times when Hobert met Viscount Gray Lint at banquets.
However, one of them is a noble and the other is a descendant of a brigadier general. They have no intersection at all, so they just look familiar.
Gray Linte said with a smile: "I will definitely notice you at the next banquet."
Then he asked: "You, you too...?"
Hobert smiled and said, "Yes, I am also a fan of mysticism."
Gray Lint showed an "I understand" smile.
At this moment, the butler came to the door and said, "Master, Miss Audrey is here."
Gray Lint personally greeted you at the door: "Dear Audrey, every time I see you, you have a different beauty."
Audrey, wearing a hood and cowhide boots, entered the room: "Graylint, your style of praising others is becoming more and more like the way elders praise others.
"Oh, Mr. Hobert, I didn't expect you to be here."
Hobert stepped forward to say hello: "Hello, Miss Audrey."
He explained: "I just completed a commission with Hugh, and we happened to go to a party together."
Gray Linte suddenly said: "I remembered, you are the lawyer who bailed Miss Xio out in just one day!"
Audrey smiled and shook her head: "Sir Viscount, your memory is like those of the elders."
Everyone laughed together.
After a brief exchange of greetings, the five young people went to a party organized by Mr. A.
This party was not as safe as a mercenary club, so Hobert borrowed a hood from Gray Lint and entered the venue wearing the hood.
Audrey and Gray Linte came here to buy the magic potion formula, but unfortunately they failed to do so. No one here sold the formulas of "Spectator" and "Pharmacist".
And Hobert came here mainly to see the quality of the extraordinary materials traded here.
Relatively speaking, the extraordinary materials traded at the party initiated by the mercenary club are higher-end, and there are even Sequence 5-level extraordinary materials, while what is traded here are basically Sequence 8 and Sequence 9-level extraordinary materials.
Of course, at such gatherings where there is a lack of trust, good things will generally be traded in private.
At this time, a transaction message read aloud by the waiter caught Hobert's attention.
The waiter said: "There is a gentleman who wants to find a way to defeat his past self!"
One person attending the party laughed "haha" twice: "Strangling yourself to death may be the best way to defeat yourself!"
This remark caused many people to laugh.
However, as Mr. A gave them a cold look, the laughing people felt like falling into an ice cave and immediately stopped laughing.
After order was restored, the waiter continued to read other transaction information.
Hobert pinched his chin: It would be interesting to defeat his past self.
He raised his hand to call the waiter: "I hope to trade with the gentleman who is looking for a way to 'defeat himself'."
Xio and Audrey were slightly stunned. They had also heard this transaction information just now, and felt the mystery of the extraordinary world. Is there really a way to defeat their past selves?
And Hobert's reaction made them slightly surprised. Does this lawyer know how to defeat his past self?
Xio quickly reminded Hobert: "The transaction here is not a game. If you deceive other partygoers, you will be punished by Mr. A!"
Hobert smiled helplessly: "Am I so unreliable in your eyes?" As he spoke, he looked at Forsi with a pointed look.
Xio was slightly startled. Yesterday, Hobert showed his very reliable side. Yes, it was Forsi who kept telling me not to trust him. I actually gradually lost confidence in him. He can even do ritual magic. Extraordinary ones.
Audrey on the side suddenly said: "I hope to observe this transaction."
Regarding Xio's previous case, Hobert left a deep impression on her. The key is that she is also curious about the way to defeat herself.
Oh my god, that was my past self!
How to overcome?
Hobert said to the waiter: "Please convey my companion's wishes."
The waiter agreed and walked to a room with a closed door. Not long after, the waiter came back: "That gentleman has agreed to your request. Please come with me."
Hobert walked in the front, Audrey followed closely, and Hugh and Gray Lint also followed. They were also curious about how to defeat their past selves.
Forsi muttered: "You are the only one who knows more." As she spoke, she followed.
There are many small closed rooms at the party to facilitate one-on-one transactions among partygoers.
The transaction partner in the room obviously did not expect that there would be so many spectators. His first reaction was to stand up and run away. However, after seeing that the waiter and everyone did not mean any harm, he smiled and said: "This makes me I remembered a surgical operation I had seen before. There was only one patient on the bed, but there were so many people watching."
Hobert smiled and said: "Sorry, the issue you raised is very complicated. We may need to have some necessary discussions."
The other party was wearing a hood, and only his chin could be seen, but his voice seemed to be very young: "Indeed, this problem is not easy to solve. I have attended several gatherings, but I have not gotten the answer I want. I hope you can Do not disappoint me."
Hobert nodded: "Can you explain in more detail? Why do you want to defeat yourself? In what aspect of yourself should you defeat yourself?"
He spread his hands: "We all know that it is impossible for a person to go back to the past and defeat his former self, and there is no point in doing so.
"But for occultism, there are many explanations for defeating the past self. For example, defeating some kind of psychological shadow of the past self is also a way to defeat the past self."
Neither Xio nor Gray Lint quite understood what Hobert meant, but Audrey and Forsi seemed to understand something, and both had thoughtful expressions under their hoods.
The other person immediately straightened his back: "You look very professional, which makes me look forward to your answer."
He continued: "There is such a gentleman. He committed many crimes when he was young, but suddenly one day the guidance of God made his conscience aware.
"From then on, he bid farewell to the life of murder and arson, and became a priest. He continued to spread the glory of the gods and helped many people overcome difficulties.
"But his younger self has been tormenting him and preventing him from achieving final redemption, so he really wants to defeat his past self."
Hobert's first reaction was: The giant bishop of the Church of the Mother Earth?
