When he heard Abner's request, he refused directly.
"I'm also very busy every day. I really can't spare so many people to help you. At most, I can only provide half of what you need."
At the end, he didn't forget to add one more sentence.
"Since this is your criminal, I hope you can get rid of him quickly and not cause any trouble on my territory."
Power is the best confidence. In his territory, he is the master.
So what if they are from the Temple of Light? Even if the real God comes, he will have to behave himself.
Looking at Deka who had already walked out, some people were indignant.
"Sir Saint, this Dicka is too arrogant!"
When had the people of the Temple of Light ever been treated so coldly? All the nobles were polite to them.
Abner was also angry.
Dicka's attitude towards Qili was much better. He gently kissed the back of Qili's hand, with interest in his eyes.
"Ms. Qili, long time no see."
"There will be a dinner party at my mansion tonight. I wonder if Miss Qili has time to attend?"
Qili agreed happily, "Of course, Mr. Dicka, I'd be happy to."
"I'll send someone to pick you up later."
The two talked for a few more words, and Dicka was about to leave, but suddenly he saw a graceful figure. He had an idea and went back to find Abner, inviting all of them to the dinner with full sincerity.

This is a very inclusive city with many people who are both good and evil. Many things that are not allowed to be sold in other areas can be found in the underground market here.
Like their rulers, the people here do not have much respect for the Temple of Light.
At the banquet, people drank and chatted, men and women in gorgeous clothes danced to the music, and many lovers were whispering to each other in the dark.
Entering the realm of the nobility, Qili felt like a fish in water. In just a short while, she was invited to dance by many men.
Wenzel felt extremely unhappy. He had already lost count of how many people he had chased away who wanted to approach the girl.
"Shall we go dancing?"
He put his arm around the girl's waist and pulled her into his arms.
“Those guys are so annoying.”
Mo Qin glanced at the men and women dancing on the dance floor and nodded in agreement.
"Do you think there's something wrong with this place?"
The soothing music relaxed people's nerves, and Wenzel pretended not to hear it.
"What?"
Mo Qin moved closer to him and repeated it. The latter bent down and moved closer. To others, it looked like the two of them were dancing in each other's arms intimately.
Wenzel gave an affirmative answer, "The air here does smell a bit bad."
The unpleasant smell did not refer to the perfume and wine at the banquet, but to the turbid atmosphere that permeated the city, which was completely different from the bright and sunny scene in other parts of the continent.
There must be a lot of dark forces hiding here. If you search carefully, you might find some unexpected gains.
Somewhere on the second floor of the banquet hall.
"Your Excellency has good taste. That woman is indeed good. Her qualities are better than those of the previous ones."
Dicka's malicious eyes fell on the girl below. He took a sip of the scarlet liquid in the cup, licked his lips with the tip of his tongue, and a joyful laugh escaped from his throat.
"How can we let go of the prey that comes to our door?"
"What do you mean?"
Dika gave the person next to him a look that said 'you know', and the latter instantly understood.
With the help of special drugs, they use some forbidden techniques to enhance their abilities by drinking blood.
This is a form of plunder.

"Qin, I have something to tell you. Can you talk to me alone?"
Qili's cheeks were flushed and her breath smelled of alcohol.
"What can't be said directly?"
Mo Qin did not agree immediately. The two of them did not get along, so of course it was impossible for him to follow the other so easily.
Qili challenged him, "It's not very convenient with so many people. What? Are you afraid to come with me?"
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
"Then follow me!"
Qili lifted her fluffy skirt and walked towards a dimly lit corridor.
Mo Qin turned around and said something to Wenzel, then followed her.
After walking for a distance, Qili turned back to confirm whether the other party had caught up with her. After confirming that Mo Qin had come, she felt at ease and led him to the agreed place.
The banquet lasted until eleven o'clock in the evening.
"What's going on? Where did Qili go?"
When Abner and his group were about to go back, they discovered that Qili was missing.
A waiter came forward and said, "Excuse me, is this Mr. Abner? A lady asked me to tell you before she left that she was feeling unwell and is leaving now."
Abner felt something was strange.
Qili felt uncomfortable, but she didn't come to him to act pitiful and act like a spoiled child. Instead, she left quietly?
He didn't think much about it.
Qili had a great time today, so it didn't seem strange for her to do something like this. Noble ladies always have some annoying bad habits.
On the way back.
Wenzel suddenly asked, "Qili didn't go back, right?"
Mo Qin nodded, "Yes, she is still somewhere in the Deka Mansion."
The other party made all the necessary arrangements and even provided an excuse: I was not feeling well and was leaving first.
At the banquet, only Di Ka knew Qili's identity, and everyone else was seeing her for the first time.
With a trick, it is not difficult to replace someone else.
Wenzel did not follow them at that time, but left the banquet and waited outside.
Although he had already roughly guessed something, he still asked, "What's going on?"
Mo Qin said lightly, "She wanted to attack me, so I took the initiative."
Qili led her to a room where there was some kind of drug that could make people unconscious and ineffective. Although no one knew what Qili was going to do, it was right that she was the one who fell victim in the end.
However, this matter was probably not initiated by Qili. Moqin could not think of anyone else except Di Ka who could do such a thing in Di Ka's mansion.
Wenzel's eyes turned slightly cold, and he reached out and held the girl's hand.
"Just let me do this kind of thing, why do you have to do it yourself?"
Do you still not trust him?
Mo Qin didn't know what was so worth arguing about. "She asked me out. If I let you go, she won't do anything."
Wenzel agreed repeatedly, "Well, you have a point."
But in fact, if Qili came back, he had already thought of what "gift" to give her.
-
When Qili woke up, she found herself locked in the basement.
It was pitch black all around, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance mixed with a musty smell.
Her hands and feet were chained, her head felt dizzy, and she had no strength in her body.
"Is anyone there?"
"Someone come here!"
"Dika! Come out here!"
"You've got the wrong guy!"
Her voice was the only one echoing in the room.
She shouted at the top of her lungs for more than ten minutes, but there was no sound outside.
She fainted again in a daze.
