Morning Star Hall was located in the center of Nosida Palace. It was the official hall with the most comprehensive protective and detection systems.

This hall, large enough to hold over a thousand people, was currently filled with everyone from Nosida Palace.

Whether they were staff of Nosida Palace itself or guest mages attending the banquet, all of them waited here in silence.

Unlike the riots that had broken out in the public areas outside, the mages here were hardly the type to make a fuss. Ninety-nine percent of them were at least mid-level mages and had extensive mission experience.

Killing was inevitable. No one made a big deal out of sudden incidents like this.

They believed the hosts could resolve the problem.

Thus, they gathered in twos and threes, chatting quietly among themselves without any signs of panic or unease.

When Lin Sheng arrived, he immediately spotted Mage Fan Bo and Oshaxiluo standing beside him.

Fan Bo's face was pale, and he appeared to be seriously injured.

Oshaxiluo, meanwhile, looked somewhat helpless, clearly never expecting to get so entangled.

Lin Sheng chuckled, then looked around at the others.

The Golden Dragon Prince looked calm as he quietly spoke with a companion beside him.

The host of the event arrived late as well. He was an old mage with white hair and a beard that reached his chest.

However, unlike other elderly mages, this one dressed rather fashionably. From a distance, he looked more like an old nobleman than a mage.

"Everyone, please listen to me. I am the host here, Saya, a mage from White Rock Woodland.

"I apologize for the incident that has occurred.

"We have now basically determined that the culprit is among us. Therefore, until the woodland mages' investigation team arrives, I hope everyone will cooperate
