On the eve of the impending Ceremony, Lu Xiang received an urgent summon from his peers.
Cain had contacted each one of them and set the gathering place at a high-class bar on the outskirts of the castle, one of the favorite spots for consortium members and also one of the most luxurious and decadent venues in District 2. In the words of the aristocrats, they'd rather keep all the morally corrupt activities outside the castle walls.
This was a bar established for consortium members, where only guests who passed identity verification could get through the strict security and explore the interior of the bar.
The area around the bar was swarming with paparazzi.
Providing scoops to media companies or leveraging social media for attention was one of their main sources of income, as they often encountered big shots near the bar who could only be seen on the net or television.
