Ying Wuyang and Yan Shaoqing exchanged a glance and nodded to each other subtly before looking around.
It's not just this castle.
If you look up, you'll see these pillars of light on many of the buildings around the castle.
It could be said that the entire capital was brightly lit, without any sense of impending doom.
At the castle gate stood a skeleton dressed as a butler.
The skeleton took two steps forward, bent slightly, and reached out towards the inside of the castle.
"Please come in, gentlemen. The young lady has prepared food and drinks for you. After you have bathed and changed, she will prepare a welcome feast for you."
Food and drinks, bathing and changing clothes, welcoming and washing away the dust of travel...
What beautiful words!
Upon hearing these words, both Yan Shaoqing, who was pretending to be indifferent, and Ying Wuyang, the main character of this visit, became excited.
to be honest.
I've seen a lot and broadened my horizons in Whale State these past two days. After all, in the Far East, only Whale State, owned by Ouyang Qianjin, has a new world.
However, after two days of wandering around, they were both mentally and physically exhausted.
So when they heard that Miss Ouyang had prepared delicious food and drinks for them, and even offered them a bath, they were all slightly excited.
But we are all people of status.
Even though the person in front of them was a talking skeleton, they didn't show any surprise on their faces.
"The skeleton spoke!"
The two lords and the base commander seemed quite calm, but the others were different.
Especially the lively Yang Qianqian.
He looked on in surprise as he watched Sebastian speak.
Yes, that's the normal reaction a person would have upon first meeting Sebastian.
"Qianqian, that's very rude!"
Yan Shaoqing had black lines appear on his forehead.
I'd been posing for so long, only to have my cousin ruin it in a second.
Sure enough, this guy was my nemesis...
“I don’t mind. To be honest, it was my rudeness that I forgot to introduce myself.”
"Hello, charming lady. My name is Sebastian, and I am the housekeeper of Miss Ouyang, the master of Whale State."
As he spoke, Sebastian walked up to Yang Qianqian and, in a very gentlemanly manner, placed his right hand on his left chest and bowed slightly.
Although Yang Qianqian is lively by nature, she has experienced many battles, both big and small, over the past year.
But after seeing the flames dancing in Sebastian's eyes, he couldn't help but show a little bit of fear.
"Alright, everyone, please follow me. I believe the hot water in the bathroom should help you get rid of the cold and fatigue."
Seeing that the show of force had achieved its desired effect, Sebastian turned around and led Ying Wuyang and a dozen or so members of the 'visiting delegation' into the castle on the red carpet.
"Hey! Is this Miss Ouyang's castle? It's so luxurious!"
The magnificent and opulent decorations along the way inside the castle made even Yan Shaoqing, the base commander, drool with envy.
The room had a spacious, high ceiling, bright chandeliers, and imposing armor (actually, it was a golem).
It's obvious at a glance that the furniture, paintings, and sculptures are all by famous artists.
Even the stair railings are made of pure gold.
The most striking feature is its luxury.
certainly.
What caught everyone's attention most was the red carpet made of an unknown material beneath their feet.
This red carpet is not only extremely soft and comfortable to walk on, but it even has a built-in air purification function.
It can completely clean the dust left on the soles of their shoes.
Once one foot steps forward, the footprints of the next foot may disappear.
This is quite astonishing.
"These things are not just for looks."
Ying Wuyang whispered to Yan Shaoqing as they walked down the stairs.
"Not just good-looking?"
"Didn't you notice? The results of these tests are all question marks. I've only ever seen this on an unactivated magic crystal fax machine."
Yan Shaoqing frowned, only then remembering the fax machine.
He had seen it before, but since he hadn't activated it himself, he hadn't paid much attention to it.
"So these are all items that need to be activated?"
"That should be correct."
Ying Wuyang's expression was solemn.
Although the entire castle looks magnificent and opulent.
But to her, it felt less like the residence of a local ruler and more like a fortress.
Moreover, it was the kind of fortress that had been reinforced from the outside in order to defend against invasion.
Simply activate it, and you can eliminate the intruder.
"Everyone, we've arrived at the bathroom. The men's bathroom is on the left, and the women's bathroom is on the right."
"No one was allowed to enter the castle, whether they were guests or other undead."
"But since you are the first to arrive in Whale State, the young lady has made an exception and allowed you to enter."
"The castle originally only had a bathroom for the young lady."
"The men's bathroom is a temporary and rather rudimentary structure. We hope you will not mind."
Sebastian subtly pointed out the castle's shortcomings.
Originally, Miss Ouyang didn't want anyone to come in.
But if it's built so well, wouldn't it be a waste if no one comes to see it?
Therefore, an exception was made to allow Ying Wuyang and the others to enter.
Only in this way can they spread their 'legend', right?
The thought of her castle becoming famous throughout the country made Ouyang Qianjin no longer care about leaks.
Moreover, since everything inside the castle is sealed, there is no question of any leaks.
And today is a rather special day...
