Witcher: I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 194 - Gala

Chapter 194: Gala

A few days later, Stardust Tower, Gala.

The venue of the gala in the Bloody Fortress was the Stardust Tower, which was a tall tower on the east side of the fortress. There was a huge banquet hall in the main tower, and a spacious square surrounded the main tower.

The people who came to attend the gala were mainly the new recruits from the Underdark Treesea, such as Heath, and the combat troops who fought on the battlements that day.

The Apprentice Knights, Knights, Elves, Dwarves, and other ordinary warriors of the other races were having an open-air bonfire banquet in the square. Wizards, Apprentices, some elite Knights, and even some of the other races who had a certain status were invited to the Stardust Tower Banquet Hall.

That evening, Heath chose an eye-pleasing gown and put on it neatly before heading to the banquet hall.

There were three Apprentices who came with him. They were Roval, Peter, and Martha. They were all recruits who had been recruited at the same time as him. They were assigned to Heath as assistants by the fortress and were responsible for following his orders and arrangements.

At this moment, the group of people entered the banquet hall.

The entire banquet hall was about half the size of a football field. It was circular and was surrounded by stone pillars that were in the shape of waves. The walls were embossed, and the floor was smooth and clean like marble. Every pattern was carefully selected.

There was an arc-shaped dome above their heads. There was a bright starry sky above the dome. It was not the gloomy red moon starry sky outside, but the beautiful galaxy outside in its normal state.

Hundreds and thousands of magic crystal lamps floated under the starry sky, reflecting the stars above, illuminating the entire hall.

As spellcasters, everyone present had attended all kinds of banquets, but at this moment, including Heath, they were still attracted by the gorgeous interior of the banquet hall.

The youngest, Martha, could not help but exclaim, “Wow, this banquet hall is too beautiful. Is the galaxy in the sky real?”

Martha was only 15 years old this year. She came from the Kara family of the Blue Mill. She was only a low-level Apprentice. The reason why she was recruited was because she had part of the bloodline of Water Demon Ava, that was one of the 16 Ancient Gods that were on par with Everett.

This bloodline could control very powerful healing spells and was very useful on the battlefield.

Beside her, Roval said with a bit of pride, “More or less. I heard from the elders in my family that this ceiling used space spells to directly project the galaxy outside. Some of the space runes were completed by my family.”

Roval was 18 years old, a low-level Apprentice. He was the oldest among the three people. He was also a pureblood, and came from the Barityan family.

There was also Peter, who did not speak. He was the only muggle among the three. He came from the Dusk Tower. Although he was only 16 years old, he already had the strength of an intermediate-level Apprentice. Just like Heath, he was a muggle genius.

“Sir Robert and the others are here! And… Sir Wizard Pierre…”

“Who is walking in the middle of them?”

“What a beautiful, beautiful Elf!”

At this moment, there was a commotion in the crowd. Everyone looked towards the gate.

They saw a group of people walking in from the gate. There were Knights, Wizards, humans, Elves, and even Dwarves. These were all the generals of the Bloody Fortress.

Walking at the front were two Wizards and an Elf.

Heath had seen the two Wizards before. They were Wizard Robert, who had commanded the battle that day, and Wizard Pierre, who had used a Stigmata-level spell to clear the area.

These days, Heath also knew the identity of Wizard Pierre. He was also one of the main generals of the Bloody Fortress. He was an advanced-level Wizard who specialized in area-of-effect spells and magic arrays. That day’s Stigmata-level spell was completed with the help of the massive magic arrays in the fortress. He himself did not possess the strength of a Stigmata-level.

Walking side by side with the two of them was an Elf.

One had to know that the two of them were already the supreme military commanders of the Bloody Fortress. To be able to walk side by side with them, it was difficult not to attract attention. From the moment they entered the battlefield, they had attracted the attention of everyone, including Heath.

The first impression that this Elf gave Heath was…

Beauty!

Bright eyes, beautiful eyebrows, exquisite facial features, creamy skin, and a graceful and charming figure… From appearance to figure, from skin to facial features, everything was done to the extreme, to the point of perfection,

It was different from Karina’s beauty and Shirley’s charm. This was a pure beauty, like a piece of art that was completely pieced together with beautiful parts.

“That sister is so beautiful!” Masha praised.

Roval clicked his tongue and said, “That is Princess Irina of the Moon Elf tribe. She is the most beautiful Moon Elf of this generation. How can she not be beautiful?”

The Elf tribe adopted a tribal system. They were made up of tribes. Their tribe was equivalent to a human kingdom, and the Moon Elf tribe was one of the more powerful tribes in the Elf tribe.

Under the envious and admiring gazes of the people in the hall, Robert and the others went inside. They went to the innermost dance floor, where there was an area that was surrounded by guards. The people inside were the top people of the fortress.

At this moment, beautiful music sounded.

There was a band in the upper left corner of the banquet hall. They were made up of Moon Elves, Flower Fairies, magic harps, and so on. At this time, they were playing beautiful music.

With the arrival of the music, the atmosphere of the banquet became lively.

Martha looked at the dance floor over there and said excitedly, “Lord Heath, Roval, Peter, let’s go and dance.”

Heath shook his head. “You guys go and play.”

He was not very interested in dancing, including this banquet. If it was not for Wizard Robert’s insistence that he had to be there, he might not have come to this banquet.

Martha and the other two looked at each other.

The three of them had been specially arranged to be Heath’s Apprentice assistants. If Heath did not go, the three of them would not dare to leave their posts.

Seeing this, Heath could not help but say, “It’s alright, you can go…”

“Wizard Heath!”

Before he could finish his words, a voice came from behind.

Heath turned his head and saw a young Knight walking over. He had just followed Wizard Robert in and was probably Wizard Robert’s personal guard.

He jogged all the way to Heath and bowed solemnly. “Sir Robert invites you over.”

Martha and the other two widened their eyes.

Heath was also a little surprised. “Invite me?”

As far as he knew, Robert’s side were all very high-ranking figures. High-ranking generals of the Bloody Fortress, high-ranking elders of other races, high-ranking Wizards, and so on. At the very least, they had to be at the level of a Wizard Master, and it had to be the kind of Wizard Master that had more power.

Although Heath was a Wizard, he should not be able to reach the same level as these people, right?

The Knight nodded and confirmed once again, “Yes.”

The eyes of Martha and the other two immediately lit up.

Although they were purebloods, they were also relatively collateral family members. Not to mention receiving treatment at Robert’s level, even the favor of an ordinary Wizard could make them feel flattered.

Unfortunately, at this moment, the young Knight added, “Sir Robert only invited Wizard Heath to go alone.”

The three of them were greatly disappointed.

Heath looked at the three of them with amusement and said, “You three go play first.”

Then, under everyone’s envious gazes, Heath followed the young Knight to the area surrounded by the dance floor.

The core area of the Bloody Fortress…
