The eastern suburbs of Twilight West City, the shack in the immigration area, ten o'clock in the morning, eight hours before the start of the dinner.

"Goddamn Twilight! I swear in God's name that if I were to catch that damn shopkeeper, I would personally poke a red-hot iron through his back door and let him taste my pain...... Oh my God, it's here again!"

Kaponodas, who was lying on the ground and scolding one second, covered his butt the next second, staggered up from the ground, and ran desperately out of the door.

With the sound of diarrhea outside the door, Nairjie lay on the grass, his face was severely dehydrated and he had not slept all night, and the whole person looked yellow and thin. His eyes looked listlessly at the blue sky outside the window, and he muttered, "I want to go home." ”

Gordon, the head of the envoy group, listened to the wail of Caponodas pulling into prostration, and then looked at Didz, who was humming on the ground with his stomach covered, and finally looked at Nerjay, who looked sluggish and worse than death.

"How do I usually warn you?!The more tempting things look, the more likely they are deadly traps!" Captain Gordon, who had not eaten a grain of rice for two days, his voice was a little hoarse and weak, but his tone was extremely serious: "Have you all used your brains to feed the dogs?!Free food, and money back to you, this kind of shoddy and boring scam, the three of you have actually fallen for it!"

Trainee Knight Nerjie looked at Captain Gordon, and with chapped and trembling lips, he said softly: "I was so hungry at that time......"

The knightly squire of the regiment, Mavdez, said to Gordon with a bitter face, "My lord, we didn't expect it to be a trap! Besides, it is too unreasonable to provide food and money to make us take laxatives......

Gordon touched his bushy beard and thought for a moment, the expression on his face became more and more serious: "I think that everything you have encountered should be a pre-designed game to prevent us from completing the task. But what is the purpose, and who is the instigator behind it......?"

Gordon turned his head to the thinker of the legation, his right-hand man, the knight, and asked, "Harry, what do you think about laxatives?"

The latter turned his back to the crowd, facing the wall, swaying his body slightly, muttering something slowly.

Repeating the question again, finding that Harry still did not respond, with a suspicious Gordon, crawling to the other party's side with his hands and feet, and listening closer, only to hear Harry repeat a word from his mouth.

"Grilled chicken, grilled chicken, grilled chicken......

Gordon looked at Harry's crumbling figure and sighed heavily.

It was like half a day in hell, slowly passing through hunger, anger and insecurity, and the Holy Acropolis envoys finally ushered in the afterglow of the sunset.

The weak Nerjay, looking at the sunset in the sunset, shouted to Gordon with a happy face, "My lord, it's time to leave for dinner!"

Gordon looked at him, shook his head and asked, "How's your stomach?"

Nierjie, who only had the idea of eating in his mind, dared to show the slightest discomfort, hurriedly patted his chest, and said confidently: "The body is all right!"

Gordon turned his face to Caponodas and Deeds, "What about you?"

The two of them, who were afraid of missing the banquet, also quickly nodded their heads, indicating that they had recovered their health.

Gordon sighed at the Holy Acropolis badge on his clothes, wiped it carefully with his sleeve, then looked at the four people in front of him, and said solemnly: "Before leaving, I have some things to explain to the four of you clearly, and you all prick up your ears for me to listen carefully! We are the envoys of the Holy Acropolis, representing the glory and will of the kingdom! When it comes to the banquet, you must always pay attention to your words and deeds, and you must not do anything that damages the prestige of the country!"

A group of five people, mounted on war horses, held high the banner of the envoys, and marched along the avenue of Dusk West City, in the direction of the palace.

Due to the expansion of the city several times, the construction of the royal palace on the high ground of the city, and the surging crowd in the evening, the five of them were weak and weak, and it took more than an hour for the envoys of the Holy Acropolis to see the gate of the inner city of the palace.

Seeing the already dark sky, the anxious Gordon regimental commander urged the war horse under his crotch to speed up to the square outside the inner city gate.

Turning over and dismounting, Gordon and his four men ran through the long forest road before finally reaching the door of the banquet hall.

Huggins, who had been waiting at the stairs of the doorway, saw the appearance of these five people, walked quickly in front of the envoys, and after confirming their identities, gestured to the attendants at the door.

"The Holy Acropolis Legation has arrived!"

Excited and apprehensive, Gordon stepped through the door, and the temple before him was like daylight, and he felt the world spinning, and the long hours of hunger and exertion made him fall to the ground.

"Captain!"

"What's wrong with you, sir?!"

"Someone fainted!"

Looking at the chaotic scene at the door, Todd frowned and whispered a few words to the attendant beside him.

Soon, medical scholars from the Twilight West Academy rushed to Gordon's side, and after some examination, they concluded that he was overworked and that there was no serious problem.

Under the help of the scholar, Gordon slowly woke up and quickly realized what had happened.

Struggling to get up from the ground, Gordon bowed deeply to Todd, his tone full of apologies: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I was rude. ”

Todd smiled and waved his hand: "Emissary of the Holy Acropolis, don't care about what happened just now, take your subordinates to your seats." ”

After waiting for everyone to be seated, Todd raised his right hand slightly, signaling that the banquet could begin.

Huggins first asked the attendants to dim the light in the hall, then asked Edgar to tell the "Golden Lark" to start the show, and finally gave the signal to serve the food.

Unlike modern Western food, wine and meat were the main foods at medieval banquets, while vegetables and fruits were rarely used, and barbecued meat was the most common appetizer and appetizer.

As the grilled chicken with lemongrass leaves, arrowweed and olive fruit was served, Barbara, the star of the Golden Lark Theatre Company, took the stage first, singing a Soprano solo song of Gutaro's historical hymn.

The guests present were amazed by Barbara's wide vocal range and tactful tone, and they were so fascinated by it that they had no intention of tasting the food.

Well, except for four......

Harry, Nerjay, Caponodas, and Deeds in the envoys oblivied the performance in front of them, completely immersed in the food on their plates.

I saw these four people, throwing away their knives and forks, grabbing the greasy and fatty chicken with one hand, desperately stuffing it into their mouths, and raising their wine glasses with the other hand, and swallowing the red wine into their stomachs along with the meat residue.

Caponodas finished eating the chicken and chewed the bones into pieces, and Harry picked up the plate and lowered his head, sucking up the juices from the plate.

Soon, the four of them ate like mad dogs, attracting the attention of the others.

"Look! those people are eating like a bunch of beasts!"

"Oh my God! that guy won't even let go of the bones!"

"The people of the Holy Acropolis, in terms of etiquette and behavior, how come they are not even as good as barbarians?!"

At this time, there were two people in the venue who were the most embarrassed.

One was Gordon, of course, the head of the legations, and the other was Mary, for people always looked at her with the slightest hint of nothingness when they spoke of the Holy Acropolis.

Resisting the urge to punch someone, Gordon coughed heavily behind him stealthily, signaling the four bastards to pay attention.

When he turned back again, he found King Twilight smiling at him.

Gordon said curtly: "Your Majesty, I am deeply sorry for the rudeness of my subordinates. ”

Todd looked at a member of the mission, put his shiny fingers into his mouth, sucked them one by one, and the corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously, but he still said calmly: "The way you eat in your country is really ...... Well...... Informal, bohemian ......"

"Your Majesty, actually, the Holy Acropolis sent me to ask for help from the Twilight City. ”

Gordon's words got to the point, Todd perked up, exchanged glances with Cumberland beside him, and asked with a pleasant face, "Asking for help?"

Gritting his teeth, Gordon said in a deep voice: "Food! Food is running out of food in the Holy Acropolis, and many civilians are dying of famine!"

"Famine?" Todd was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "The Holy Acropolis has fertile land and abundant water, so why is there such a famine?"

"Because of that war with the Silverring Barbarian Alliance!" Gordon lowered his head, shaking his head and sighing: "This battlefield has lasted for two years, and the resources in the kingdom, whether it is population, food, or money, have been consumed. Because the men were all conscripted into the army, the fields were uncultivated, and there was no food to cook in the pots. In the markets of the Holy Acropolis, there are even cases where a small bag of rye can be exchanged for a child. ”

At this point, Barbara's solo has just ended.

The lights in the hall were turned back on. Todd rose from his throne and took the lead in applauding, and the guests in the hall followed suit, paying tribute to the famous troupe star with applause.

After the opening solo, the dinner moved on to the main theme. On the performance stage, magicians, contortionists, clowns and other troupe members appeared one after another, and Todd took Gordon, the head of the envoy troupe, to receive the greetings from the guests who arrived tonight.

When Mary appeared in front of Gordon, the latter's surprised gaze and trembling voice showed unreservedly excited heart.

"Your Royal Highness, don't you remember me?" Gordon straightened up, trying his best to not look so old, "I'm Gordon from White River Castle! You used to visit my manor when you were a child, and I made a swing for you myself! The king has been missing you, and I hope you will ......"

With an indifferent expression, Mary lifted the hem of her skirt and saluted Gordon, and said lightly: "Dear Lord Gordon, have you recognized the wrong person? I have indeed heard of Princess Mary, but she was born in the Holy Acropolis and died in the Silver Ring. ”

Looking at Mary's desperate departing figure, Gordon's back bent down again, and the whole person seemed to be ten years old.

Todd had intended to ask Gordon about the details of the Famine on the Acropolis, but the current situation confirmed that it was not suitable to talk about business.

On the other side of the venue, the four-member group of the Holy Acropolis envoys was desperately trying to eliminate the delicacies on the table while others were busy with the audience.

Caviar, grilled fish, lamb chops...... Empty plates were piled up on the table of the four, piling higher and higher, until they even reached the top of their heads.

Nell Jie stuffed a piece of juicy medium-rare steak into his mouth, swallowed it in his stomach after a few chews, and just wanted to attack the next plate of yusheng, suddenly frowned and touched his lower abdomen.

Caponodas had just licked a plate of caviar when he saw a pale, sweaty Neerjay, and asked strangely, "What's wrong with you?"

"My stomach, my stomach, it's starting to hurt again!" Nerjie clamped his legs, stood on tiptoe, and looked around anxiously, looking for a place where he could solve his excretory needs: "No! I can't help it!"

Caponodas looked disdainful: "Your body still lacks exercise, it's only halfway through eating, you look at me...... Well...... Yikes!"

Before he could finish speaking, Caponodas stood up with his eyes wide open.

He covered his ass with one hand, grabbed the belt of his trousers with the other, and shouted in a low voice, "Damn!

Deeds also leaned on the table at this time and stood up, looking like an "old illness has relapsed".

Nerjay approached Caponodas and whispered, "Outside the gate is a garden, and once we get there, we can ...... to our heart's content."

"Your Majesty, allow me to introduce you. Gordon walked up to the subordinates of the legation, pointed to a young man beside him, and said to Todd with a smile: "This is the knight Harry, he is the chief of guard of the Holy Guard King's City, and the son of my dear friend. ”

Gordon turned around and was about to introduce Nerjay, only to find that the client, Cabo Nordas and Dids, were fleeing towards the gate with an extremely strange step.

Gordon yelled at the three fleeing men, "Where are you going, you three, get back at once!"

In desperation, the three of them clamped their legs again and ran back.

Looking at the strange steps of the three members of the legation, Todd remembered the "catwalk" when the model walked the catwalk in his previous life.

"Your Majesty, this is Nirjie, a midshipman in the cavalry regiment directly under the king's command. ”

Todd looked at the tall young man in front of him, his face was pale, his body was shaking like chaff, and beads of sweat were running down his cheeks.

Todd mistakenly thinks that Nerjay's performance is that the other party is nervous.

Patting the other party's arm, Todd smiled and said to Nerjie: "Young man, don't be nervous, I won't eat you again, haha!"

Nierjie turned his body in pain, and his expression was distorted like a demented child: "Your Majesty...... Next, I really need to leave ...... now."

Looking at the abnormal behavior of this guy in front of him, Todd secretly took a step back, and said in his heart: This person shouldn't have something mentally wrong, right?

"Don't be so nervous, take it easy, take it easy!"

Todd's unintentional words, but like an electric door switch, completely broke down Nerjie's spiritual defense.

The latter rolled his eyes, and an inexplicable orgasmic expression appeared on his face.

With a long, dull echo, a smell strong enough to kill a skunk gradually permeated the entire hall.

"Oh my God, what stinks!"

"It tastes like hell!"

The matter is far from over, and because Nerjay got started, Caponodas and Dizzy, who could no longer bear it, simply let themselves go completely.

Three voices of different volumes and tones form a "symphony" that makes everyone's hearts tremble.

Later, the sound of the air crackling and the rushing sound of the water in this song pushed the atmosphere of the whole venue to a climax in an instant.

The noblewoman with a prominent identity cried and wore exquisite makeup, and she didn't care about the lady's demeanor, so she escaped from the venue with a crawl.

The gentleman, who had behaved politely, pushed away all the people in front of him who stood in his way, and ran into the royal garden to vomit.

As for Gordon, the head of the Acropolis legations, he fainted from his seat before he could utter the words, "O my God."

For a long time since that nightmarish night, the "Dinner Party Tragedy", a popular street curse has been circulating in Twilight.

"You're a native of the Holy Acropolis!"
