Chapter 834: Destiny

Chapter 834: Destiny IV

Late at night, the banquet hall of the 'Orient' was still brightly lit.

The main dishes were roast chicken and roast venison, mixed with various fresh fruits, as well as cream, honey, butter, black pepper and other seasonings, which were brought in like water.

Of course, wine is essential.

Long before the salon began, barrels of beer were piled up like a human pyramid.

A pipe is connected to the highest barrel.

Just put the tube down and the golden wine will flow out continuously.

It shines brightly under the light.

However, there was no music in the banquet hall.

It was not the performers who neglected their duty, but the young first mate who conveyed Arthur's instructions.

'Tonight's banquet is a real banquet.

Just to celebrate, nothing else.

Everyone can participate.

Including our performers and waiters.'

With such instructions, the performers left the stage one after another after completing a warm-up performance at the beginning.

At the beginning, the performers were still a little uncomfortable.

But soon, as the captain raised his glass, the atmosphere became lively.

Especially when last night’s grand prize winner, a reporter from the South Los Daily News, stepped forward.

"The Vostok was destined to be extraordinary from the beginning, and we were lucky enough to witness the birth of a legend!"

The reporter's words resonated with everyone.

Yes.

From the interception of the "Vostok" when it left the port, the cult dispute in West Berlin, to the river pirates and water monsters in Einhardt's territory, etc.

Each and every incident is so shocking.

In fact, you don't need so many things. Just one of them is enough to make people write about it.

And when all these things come together?
legend!

An undoubted legend!
The enthusiasm of the tourists and staff of the "Orient", who were witnesses of the "legend" and could even be called participants, reached its peak at this moment.

Who doesn’t want to be praised?
Who doesn’t want to be looked at with admiration?
After having this opportunity, something becomes different.

Everyone was toasting.

Everyone had a lively conversation.

Even those wealthy people with considerable wealth did not put on airs at this time.

Even, count them for their enthusiasm.

Because they have a deeper understanding of Arthur's power and know how to please Arthur.

"What about the lottery tonight?"

a trumpet player in the band inquired.

"It should be soon, right?

The lottery also started before the salon ended yesterday.

I wonder who will be the luckiest tonight."

The sailor next to him answered.

Almost subconsciously, the sailor looked at last night's lucky man, the reporter from the South Los Daily.

Similarly, other people in the banquet hall also cast their eyes over.

Under such focused attention, the reporter from the South Los Daily was filled with an unprecedented sense of satisfaction. He felt himself at the moment, and a feeling that his whole body was floating made his favor for the "Vostok" and Arthur soar.

"In future articles, please praise the Vostok and Mr. Kratos more!"

The reporter was thinking in his heart, but his hands were not slow.

He immediately raised his glass -

“I believe that everyone will have good luck.”

Such humble words immediately won everyone's favor.

They started toasting again.

Especially this reporter, many people came over to clink glasses and say words of blessing.

He drank glass after glass of wine.

The reporter's steps began to stagger.

But his spirits were high.

The reporter swore that this was the happiest moment of his life, something he had never experienced before.

The reporters, who already had a very favorable impression of the "Orient" and Arthur, now completely became supporters of the "Orient" and Arthur.

When another barrel of wine was finished, old Barry, dressed in a captain's uniform, walked onto the stage.

“Good evening, everyone.

Is everyone happy? "

Old Barry asked with a grin.

"hapiness!"

Everyone said in unison.

“Then comes the happier moment—do you see the chairs around here?

Now, you need to choose a chair you like and sit on it.

After that? Of course, read the note under the chair.

Just like yesterday, red is the lucky color."

After saying that, Old Barry raised his hand and pointed.

Everyone in the banquet hall was stunned at first.

Then they smiled and walked towards the chairs that each other liked.

Although different from the drawing of lots to select the lucky winner last night, this new method is more exciting and fairer.

Even if it is not said explicitly, some people still complain in their hearts when they are not the one who draws the red paper.

It’s just drawing lots, those who understand will understand.

That's really cheating.

And this one?
It really depends on luck and...

speed!

Many people took a fancy to the same chair.

Isn’t this just a competition of speed?
As they chased each other, there was a brief commotion in the banquet hall, but with old Barry and Albert watching over them, no riot occurred.

“Now, let’s see who the lucky guy is.

Please, everyone, turn your chairs over."

Barry Sr. said.

As soon as the words fell, people couldn't wait to take action.

Then--

"I!

it's me! "

The trumpet player from before shouted loudly, looking ecstatic.

The eyes of the people around were full of envy and jealousy.

But soon, with old Barry leading the applause, the only sound in the banquet hall was applause.

And just as the applause fell, a voice rang out——

“What a lucky guy!

I wonder if my lover and I can enjoy this good fortune with you?"

A clear and loud voice came from the door.

People's attention was immediately drawn to it.

Everyone's eyes were directed there.

Because they had heard that voice before.

It's Arthur.

And the moment they saw Arthur, they exclaimed in surprise.

They also saw Malinda.

Especially those wealthy businessmen stood up respectfully the moment they saw Melinda.

Compared to Arthur's reputation as a 'medium', the reputation of 'Lady of the Long Night' is more famous among wealthy businessmen - both positive and negative.

The former is respectable.

And the latter?
Of course it's fear.

Facing so many gazes, Arthur walked towards the trumpeter, and Melinda followed quietly holding Arthur's arm.

When the two men stopped, the trumpet player had already stammered.

"I'm willing!
Of course I would! "

Arthur is his boss. Although the prize is very valuable, it is well known that with his kindness, he will definitely compensate him.

In fact, the same is true.

next moment--

“Thank you for your generosity!
This generosity has already made me feel lucky!
and so--

I am ready to give everyone another chance to win.”

As soon as Arthur finished speaking, cheers broke out all around.

As the cheers died down slightly, Arthur immediately added.

"Of course, anyone who has won a prize tonight cannot participate!"

Arthur blinked as he spoke.

This kind of good-natured mischief immediately brought laughter to everyone.

While Old Barry and Albert were preparing for the second draw, Melinda asked Arthur in a very low voice.

"What are you doing?"

Melinda was not surprised that Arthur took control of the situation with words after entering the banquet hall.

What really surprised Melinda was why Arthur did this.

She couldn't figure it out.

But she was sure that Arthur would not do anything in vain.

Facing Melinda's curiosity, Arthur raised the corner of his mouth -

"be late."
