Level Up in Earth Evolution

Chapter 121: Suspicious Peoples



The crowd in the hall became stunned after watching Bai Feng coming.

"Hey, isn't that the new hero? He has guts to come after the priestess."

"Che, what hero are you talking about? He is just a womanizer. He thought after becoming a hero he will get every girl he wanted, but when he made a move on the girl he likes, she replied that a donkey suited him more than her."

"Oh, that's some vicious reply. But is it true?"

"Of course, it's true. Many people know it. Do you see those triplets with that scary guy? That's the girl I am talking about."

The people conversed with hushed voices, glancing at Bai Feng, making his face black.

When suddenly the two knights that were protecting him from shadows revealed themselves, making him stunned.

"This lowly knight greets Priestess Irene," both knights saluted simultaneously with respectful expressions looking at her.

Irene nodded, not being surprised by their presence.

"You can do what you came to do, and there is no need to greet me again," she replied with a little irritation.

Hearing her, both knights nodded respectfully and disappeared, to protect Bai Feng from the shadows again.

Watching this, everyone became puzzled, wondering why the knights greeted the priestess.

The priestess was from the church, and the knights are from the royal family.

For some unknown reasons, the relationship between the two powers of kingdoms has always been strained for decades, and this was the fact everyone knew.

Even Li Wei and his party were aware of it, but they didn't care much as they don't want to get involved in politics.

However, for others, it was different, especially for nobles. They couldn't help but think deeper about the issue, but no one talked about it as they could already see priestess Irene irritated.

"Ahem! Everyone, I, Loid Maxwell, thank you all for coming to the party, and without further ado, we should start the party," Loid announced and clapped two times, making a group of people come out from the room.

The group was made up of beautiful women and handsome men who carried musical instruments while some wore stylish clothes for dance.

"As everyone knows, without music, no party will be good. So, my second wife Maria invited a famous musical group from the capital city to perform here," Loid explained proudly and continued.

"You all might be thinking this party is arranged for the villa I bought, right? But that's not the main reason. This party was arranged because our All-in-One Adventurer Shop is finally opening a branch in the capital city," he announced, making everyone stunned.

"I know this might be a bit early, but I hit the iron when it was hot and got it done. Also, our shop will be soon launching its new items that are rare inside our city. You might be surprised what this will be, so let me introduce..." Loid continued with a smile, advertising the shop without a care.

Li Wei became speechless as he was waiting for the party to start, but it looks like it's going to take longer.

'Oh, I almost forgot about that idiot,' he thought and glanced at Bai Feng with cold eyes.

Li Xin already told him about the encounter, and he really wanted to kill him, but he restrained himself as he didn't want an unnecessary headache.

'If I can't do it personally, then what I have to do is find someone who can do it,' he pondered, thinking about the dark factions.

There were a lot of them, but it didn't mean every faction wanted to destroy the world.

A lot of them were bounty hunters where you can put a request to kill with money, and Li Wei was planning to do this.

As if sensing his cold gaze, Bai Feng looked at him with a dark expression. In response, Li Wei let out a smirk, making his face more ugly.

'Just wait. I will kill you, and no one can stop me,' Bai Feng thought with anger as he pondered how to kill him with the items he got from the gods.

Li Wei was unaware of what he was thinking, but he did sense his cold gaze filled with menace.

'Interesting. Is he planning to be a snake in the dark?' Li Wei thought without changing his expression.

He didn't fear him a bit because his level was too low. As for the knights protecting him, they were around 80-90, and it wasn't a problem for him.

With his spirit attributes at 740 points, he can use the attributes equal to a level 148 person.

It might harm his body a little bit, but it was enough to deal with them even if he couldn't use any powerful skills because of his level lock.

As he was pondering how to kill him, Loid finally finished his advertisement.

"This is all I have to say, and without further ado, let's start the party!" he announced, and the musical group from the capital city started playing with people coming to congratulate him personally.

Loid, Eliza, and Maria became busy while Emily sneaked out with an eight-year-old boy coming towards Li Wei and his party.

"Abyss leader, it seems you are holding a lot of surprises," Irene chuckled after noticing no men coming towards them.

Even Bai Feng was staying away with a frown on his face, wondering who was scaring him.

"Priestess Irene, you are mistaken. I am not an Abyss leader," Li Wei corrected her. As for her later part, he ignored it.

"Tsk, you hold no interest in me. Aren't you curious about why I came here?" Irene replied with a small pout, not caring about her identity.

"Priestess Irene, the matter you came here for must be important, and I don't think it's a good thing to get curious about," Li Wei answered and turned his attention to Li Xin and others.

For some reason, they didn't stop Irene from coming close to him like how they were doing before with others.

He didn't care about it, but he was curious why they didn't do it. However, he didn't notice anything through their expressions as they continued to chat with Emily who arrived here with a little boy.

The boy was shy and was hiding behind Emily while looking at the food on the plates with excited eyes.

As he watched them, Irene beside him pouted for getting ignored, but she didn't bother him and observed the crowd.

"Lyla, did you find suspicious people?" she inquired in a low voice that could be only heard by Lyla.

In response to her, Lyla nodded.

"Yes, Priestess. There are many suspicious people entering the city, but most of them are from other kingdoms who came to see the hero. Because of it, we can't capture them," she replied with a troubled face.

Hearing her, Irene nodded and observed the crowd once again. There were a lot of people here, mostly consisting of adventurers with their party.

If it were just nobles, she didn't need time to find out about their identities, but for adventurers, things were difficult because some of them were contracted servants from other kingdoms.

"Keep an eye on every suspicious person, and if you find them doing something out of the norm, apprehend them immediately," Irene instructed after pondering for a while.

Lyla nodded and commanded her subordinates to spread out.

Just as they were looking for the suspicious people inside the party hall, the real ones were still outside.

"Sir Daniel, why aren't we entering the main party hall? The party has already started," Zek inquired with a doubt.

In response, he received a glare.

"Do you want to die? Do you even know what kind of person the Priestess Irene is? Don't look at her simple nature; she is more ruthless. If you got caught, you won't be able to see the sun again," Daniel replied with a snort.

"Then are we going to stay outside?" Mark asked with a puzzled face.

However, Daniel shook his head.

"No, just wait for the orders. I am not the only one who came here. Others are here too, and everyone has their plans by higher-ups," Daniel replied and observed the people around him with a cold look.

"Be ready to fight. We are not the only dark faction here; someone might come here just to cause chaos," he alerted them after watching some suspicious people in the crowd.

Both Mark and Zek nodded with heavy expressions and became alert.

However, their attention was soon attracted by a luxurious carriage, the same for the crowd who were eating.

"Hey, look, that's the guild master, right?"

"Yes, it's the guild master. He probably came after hearing Priestess Irene is here."

"So, that's the case. Then what about the city lord?"

"Who knows? Don't you know his personality? He might be already inside the party without anyone noticing him."

"You are right, but I wanted to see him come in a luxurious carriage and flaunt his status."

The people conversed among themselves while Daniel frowned after hearing them.

"Why are the guild master and city lord here? Weren't the others are distracting them?" he muttered with a frown.
