Chapter 160: Receiving Gifts (Second Update)

  That evening, at Prince Dasniel's palace, the prince himself hosted a banquet for the Golrennais Kingdom delegation.

  It was said to be a banquet for the delegation, but in fact it was only aimed at Raven alone. The largest earl vassal was left with a large number of low-ranking nobles to entertain the noble representatives of Gorrein, and Darsnell just showed his face before taking Raven into the inner mansion.

  Unlike the front hall used to greet guests, the inner mansion is Dasniel's true lair. Even the two gatekeeper guards are high-ranking Golden Guards.

  They bowed their heads in a deep single-kneed bow before the Princes. To Raven and the following Saiyns, they inclined their heads slightly.

  All the way, Levin could feel the arrogant aura emanating from the soldiers of the Sniel army, looking at anyone with a kind of 'I am the best in the world' disdain.

  Lei Wen just gave a cold laugh and didn't say anything.

  The building and decoration of the Prince Gong Mansion are extremely grand and luxurious.

  If no one told Raven, it would look like a standard imperial palace at first glance.

  From the main gate of the inner court to the main building, there was a brand new path paved with countless shining pearls, and even the curb stones on both sides were amber. On both sides were continuous small gardens, all of which were well-trimmed green plants, but in the middle of the garden, Raven found many traces of giant carnivorous plants, only they were well disguised, and also used some kind of strange method to temporarily put them into hibernation.

  The front yard of the inner court is also heavily guarded, with a pair of white silver high-ranking hand servants standing guard every ten meters. In addition, there are golden high-ranking hands leading the white silver guards as patrol teams passing by.

  The main house is a palace built on the mountain, seven stories high, occupying almost half of the area of this small valley. The side halls on both sides seem magnificent, but in fact those small air windows are all shooting holes, and more serve as turrets guarding the main hall.

  Levin felt a sharp and piercing aura on both tower spires, as if being stared at by an eagle. If he wasn't mistaken, there should be a legendary magic shooter inside each one.

  Palaces and side halls, the roofs are all made of smooth white tiles. These strange, dragon-scale-like tiles overlap each other, with almost no gaps in between. It can be imagined that even a skilled assassin would find it difficult to stand or hide on this kind of roof.

  Each floor of the main palace has 8-meter-high and 3-meter-wide super-large glass windows, which look magnificent and imposing. Raven noticed that each window has a gate similar to a thousand-pound gate. When necessary, closing the gate is like a fortress.

  Dasley Nil's face was full of enthusiasm as he led the way forward, but Raven couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

  Entering the palace, Prince didn't lead Raven to the main hall. In fact, he wanted to take Raven there, but Raven might not have gone anyway. These main halls often had a lot of magical traps, and although Raven wasn't afraid, it would be very troublesome to go. They arrived at their destination, and as an escort, Sains was led next door.

  The room that Rains brought them into was a very small parlor for the prince's status. The moment they entered, anyone who wasn't too dull to magical elements could clearly feel that they had passed through a turbulent magic barrier, which was a spell boundary that isolated sound and detection magic.

  The living room is less than thirty square meters, and the nearly round sofa that sinks into the ground in the middle occupies two-thirds of the entire room. When sitting on the sofa, if you slump down, you can sink completely into the sofa. If you sit up straight, your head will stick out above the floor.

  "Very tasteful design." Raven said lightly.

  "Hah, you'll see something even more extraordinary later." The king led Raven to sit down on the sofa. With a snap of his fingers, the walls of this windowless room slowly descended from all four sides.

  Lei Wen stared at everything in front of him in shock.

  Behind the wall was a huge circular large bathtub. Under sufficient light projection, Raven could clearly see dozens of mermaids inside the bathtub. There were genuine ones and artificial mermaids wrapped with fake fish tails around their waists. Mermaids from various tribes were present, and Raven even saw pure-blooded Sun Elves.

  At this time, the tea table in the middle of the round sofa automatically moved away, revealing a large hole with a diameter of over one meter that was rippling with water.

  "Choose anyone you like, just point at her and she will come out from here, from this moment on, she will belong to you forever." Prince Darsinel said generously.

  But Raven saw that among these fake mermaids, there was the wife of the prince he had met last time, who had announced to the outside world that his ex-wife had died suddenly...

  What integrity, what character! Hmph!

  Lei Wen waved his hand and refused.

  The king's face turned slightly black on the spot.

  "These women I can bring back at will, Leila won't be happy about it." Raven said nonchalantly.

  Dasley's heart skipped a beat. Leila? Without any honorifics? Unhappy?

  This revelation is too much. Dastinil can't help but be cautious. Any priest of the gods, for the most part, has a considerable degree of respect for the gods. Only those who are closely related to the gods can be so casual, such as the chosen people of God who can provide divine play and divine descent, these people are mostly the descendants of the god's bloodline, and family members don't have that many constraints.

  After the Harlequin incident, Raven's close relationship with the Phantom Goddess was exposed to the eyes of all the gods. Although it is not clear what kind of relationship they have, it must be very intimate. After all, a mortal would repeatedly confront multiple gods for Laila, claiming it was for justice or whatever, who believes you!

  As the high priest of Benn, Darsniel could certainly see the enhanced Misty Lady's blessing on Raven at such a close distance, as well as the blessings of two other goddesses.

  Dassniel had a bit of a headache, which directly put it strongly, meaning that it was very likely to be guilty of one crime including three goddesses, including a powerful fire-emitting lady.

  Three goddesses, none of whom are fuel-efficient lamps. Shuni is an exception, her strength isn't something that can be achieved in a year or two. Red Knight and Phantom Goddess have recently occupied Golems, the number of followers has skyrocketed, and their power has surged. As long as Golems doesn't perish, it's really impossible to do anything about Raven for the time being.

  Not to mention, Red Knight has recently shown signs of promoting weak divine power.

  Thinking again, all the guys who were hostile to Raven and had bad luck were famous gods. The god of assassination, Shirek, the god of thieves, Mesk, the evil demon of cruel officials, Gaggs... The worst was Gaggs, who actually fell directly.

  Just thinking about it sends shivers down my spine.

  Darsinil didn't know that there was actually a Grey Dwarf guardian god named Ladug, which only a few outsiders knew. If the prince found out, he would probably be even more terrified of Raven.

  At this thought, Dastnyer immediately switched to a second plan - luring.

  "Haha! Being favored by the goddess can be a troublesome thing at times!" Darsniel laughed heartily. He clapped his hands, and one corner of the sofa slowly opened, revealing four beautiful maidens dressed in thin white silk robes, holding exquisite golden wine cups and jugs, who stepped out gracefully from inside.

  "What would you like to drink? Just say it, as long as it's a wine from the Mosha Empire, I have it!"

  "Wine, thank you!"

  After pouring wine, put down the wine pot, and the maidservants left in a file.

  "Raven, you're too reserved. It's making me feel uncomfortable too."

  Lei Wen smiled and downed a shot of strong liquor: "I've had mine, you're on your own."

  "Good! Splendid!" The prince's eyes lit up instantly and he became spirited.

  Unbeknownst to them, ten cups of strong liquor had been consumed, and despite their good physical condition, they both felt a little drunk.

  "Raven! It's rare for you to come by, I have something good to give you. I sense the presence of darkness on you, and I think you'll definitely like this." Darsnil lifted up the sofa cushion, revealing a small storage compartment underneath, from which he pulled out a set of black leather full-body armor and placed it on the coffee table.

  "This is..."

  "The light is the craftsman's labor cost and material fee, which has already spent one million gold coins on it. It's yours now, you can name it whatever you like! You must take this thing, otherwise I won't consider you as a friend."

  Lei Wen was slightly surprised, this prince is really generous.

  As soon as I got it, the system prompt came.

  Item Name: Dark Covenant Thief's Blood Black Dragon Armor [Legendary Epic Equipment]

  Item Type: Full Body Armor

  Equipment effect: Armor value 182 points, immune to second circle or lower spells, acid damage immunity.

  Item Description: This is a masterpiece of the Dwarf Master Craftsman, Mosin. It took three months to create this exquisite full-body leather armor using several pieces of black dragon skin as its base, infused with shadow energy. It consists of a half-body armor, two thigh armors, one pair of knee guards, and two calf armors. During the manufacturing process, many special techniques were added, giving it perfect defensive capabilities comparable to steel plate armor, as well as innate magical resistance unique to dragon-kind.

  Item Special Effect 1: This helmet has a shadow, which can create a cover for the enemy. When you attack an enemy weaker than you, each successful attack will automatically put you into stealth mode.

  Item Special Property 2: Instant Reaction. When you are critically hit by an attack, you gain temporary HP equal to the sum of your armor enhancement bonus and Constitution modifier, while the attacker who critically hit you takes an equivalent amount of Shadow damage. (The minimum value of temporary HP will not be lower than 50 points)

  This set of leather armor is really awesome.

  Lei Wen decisively stored it in his own storage ring while laughing: "How can this be...?"

  The king looked at Raven's sarcastic smile and really wanted to slap him on the spot: Sorry, are you still charging?

  But after receiving the gift, it's easy to handle. The king continued to talk nonsense, saying things like "long live friendship" that even ghosts wouldn't believe. Unbeknownst to them, they had already started leaning on each other's shoulders.

  The king took a swig of wine, and with a burst of drunken energy, said: "Harken that time, your situation wasn't good, I don't blame you. To be honest, if it weren't for Harken that time, I would've been done for. But you're not very kind either, I lost so many White Dragons. Although the White Dragons were a bit inferior, they were still pure-blooded giant dragons!"

  Raven was actually thinking about what kind of sweet deal he could get, when suddenly Laila's urgent voice sounded in Raven's ear: "There's trouble. The Duke of Cinden from the Kingdom of Pais has been assassinated, and at the scene, there is a holy emblem of Shrike."

  "Awesome!"
