1238

The city of Palermo, Sicily, has entered the night.

The Colosseum on the sea, although brightly lit, is empty.

The first day of the competition has ended without much suspense, and the powerful mercenaries of the previous editions have successfully qualified, and tomorrow will be the beginning of the competition.

On a large open-air balcony outside the Cassano Hotel, a middle-aged man in a white chef's suit and a chef's hat slices the salmon on the cutting board with the blade of his hand without smiling.

Each slice of salmon is as if it has been mechanically cut, and the neatness is jaw-dropping, just the thickness that slowly breaks down and melts in the mouth.

The two maids of the hotel successively delivered the prepared seafood meals to a long table not far away.

At the long table, Christine held up the champagne in her hand and clinked glasses with the nearest rose.

After the crisp sound, the two women smiled tacitly and drank the champagne.

The faces of the two women were already slightly flushed, apparently because they had drunk a lot of alcohol before the dishes were ready.

"Aphrodite, you don't look worried, you're really having a good time", Ares on the other side leaned back in his chair lazily, his facial expression a little disdainful.

"Why not, I'm here to have the idea of a vacation", Christine said indifferently.

With that, Christine turned around and shouted to the cook over there, "Poseidon, aren't you done yet?" ”

The sea god, who is a chef at work, frowned and raised his head, "Before I finish cooking, don't touch the food, otherwise no one will eat it." ”

Christine could only shrug her shoulders and turn away in boredom.

Cai Ning on the side had been staring at Poseidon cooking for a long time, and he couldn't have imagined that Poseidon was a retired Navy and a chef in a Hawaiian restaurant.

It's a big surprise to see Poseidon cooking seriously.

"Miss Christine, why do you have to wait until he's finished before you can eat it?" Cai Ning couldn't help but wonder.

"I'll answer you", Alice, who was also a little impatient, pouted, "Poseidon is very serious about dining, as long as he wants to make a table of food seriously, he must wait for him to put all the dishes together and complete a 'work' before he can start eating, otherwise he will feel imperfect." ”

"To put it simply, he's paranoid about cooking, a perfectionist paranoid cook," Stern laughed and winked.

Cai Ning and Rose couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, these guys have lived for tens of thousands of years, and they should be old antiques, but no matter how you look at them, they are a group of naughty children with eccentric personalities and cynicism.

But if you think about it from a different perspective, it's not difficult to understand. After all, the years are too long, and if the gods don't find something to pass the time and cultivate various interests, I'm afraid that there will be no desire to survive, and the previous Hades will not be the only one.

After another ten minutes of waiting, Poseidon finally finished the rest of the sashimi platter and placed it on the long table, and the whole seafood dinner was colorful and extremely tempting.

Poseidon also deliberately took out his mobile phone and took photos of the food on the entire table, and his face was quite proud.

After a moment of ridicule and ridicule from the other gods, Poseidon sat down, motioned for everyone to move, and told the other waiters to all step back.

This dinner was initiated by Christine in the afternoon, although there are many grievances and hatreds between the gods, and the struggle between the open and the secret has never been broken.

But in the final analysis, they are still of the same race, old friends, and it is rare to get together, and it is reasonable to have a meal together.

Cai Ning and Rose were able to participate, partly because of Yang Chen's relationship, and partly because of the gods' affirmation of their strength.

After all, they are all characters who have fought with Huaxia monks, and they can still clearly feel the "annoying" aura on the second daughter.

"Hermes, you're on the island, can't you take off your black suit?" don't you think it's inappropriate," Christine said drunkenly, pointing to Raphael on the other side.

Raphael gracefully picked up a white napkin and wiped his mouth, "Don't worry, the blood clan has no body temperature." ”

"Who cares if you're hot or not, and besides, if you're not sucking blood, why eat like us."

Raphael chuckled, "It's an affirmation of Poseidon's craftsmanship." ”

"You don't need to be sure, it's perfect," Poseidon said slowly.

Rose and Cai Ning looked at each other, these guys not only had strange temperaments, but they were also very thick-skinned.

Ares' gobbling up made the food in front of him disappear particularly quickly, and when he was almost done, the long-haired god of war got up on his own and walked out of the platform.

"Ares, where are you going?" asked Stern frowning.

"Do you want to ask?" said Ares, turning.

"Now is not the time to go to them, what do you think you can do to them alone?"

Ares sneered, "I don't have time to eat with you until midnight, and I'm not interested in watching the mercenary conference of the entire human race, I'm here to fight with a few of them." ”

"Hey, man, do you want to be thrown into reincarnation?" Hermes teased.

"So what, how do you know if you can't do it if you don't fight", Ares said disdainfully: "I'm not interested in their conspiracy at all, you don't dare to go, I dare!"

For this guy's tendon, Stern and Christine and the others frowned, which was unreasonable.

At this moment, everyone noticed something and looked at the sky to the north, and Cai Ning and Rose were all happy.

In the blink of an eye, Yang Chen's figure landed on the wooden board of the balcony, and he was holding a boxy box wrapped in blue silk cloth in his hand.

"Nasty Hades, you're finally back, and I thought you were scared and ran away!" Christine chuckled.

Yang Chen "tsked" his mouth and glanced at everyone present, "People are quite together, when I wasn't there, nothing should have happened." I'm sorry, I was delayed because I went to Wales. ”

Since Jane had to rush back to Wales to participate in the New Year's celebrations, Yang Chen also sent the woman back to the royal palace in Wales.

Although Jane was very reluctant, she still missed her unserious mother Catherine, and told Yang Chen to go to him as soon as the New Year's activities were over.

Yang Chen inevitably had to meet Catherine and have some conversations, so he didn't rush back to Sicily until night.

"Not yet, but I don't know if there will be one when this thing is sent to death," Stern snorted at Ares.

Yang Chen was a little confused, but he still walked to Rose and Cai Ning first, and handed the big box in his hand to Cai Ning.

"Here, Ning'er, this is a gift I specially brought back for you", Yang Chenle said hehehe.

Cai Ning was a little stunned, and after taking it slowly, she blinked, "Gift, aren't you going to find Princess Jane, how can you ......?"

"Jane is already safe, this gift is an apology for not being able to accompany you to a full dinner, you can't blame me if you take it", Yang Chen said.

"I didn't blame you in the first place", Cai Ning looked at the box with a smile, "What's here?"

Yang Chen sold Guanzi, "Don't open it now, wait until you go back to the room to see it." ”

Cai Ning said "um" happily, but she didn't expect Yang Chen to go out to save other women and think about buying gifts for herself, so she couldn't help lowering her head shyly, hoping that the dinner would end soon.

"Husband, you are so partial, why did you bring a gift to Ning'er!" Rose angrily pinched the soft flesh on Yang Chen's waist.

Yang Chen shook the palm of the rose embarrassedly, "Next time, next time I buy it for you, when I find this gift, it's just like that." ”

"Really?"

"Of course, how could I lie to you, Rose Baby", Yang Chen hurriedly kissed the woman on the face.

Rose didn't take it too seriously, and when she heard Yang Chen say this, she smiled happily again, but she was more curious about what Cai Ning had taken.

After giving the gift, Yang Chen asked what was going on, and Christine also briefly explained the identity of the giant and the fact that Ares was going to find them.

After listening to this, Yang Chen had to sigh that he had to make up for some of the history of the gods, but he didn't expect the giant clan to really exist.

It's just that like the other main gods, Yang Chen couldn't imagine why these guys wanted to participate in the Caesar Conference, and whether there was any conspiracy behind them.

Thinking of this, Yang Chen said directly to Ares: "I persuade you not to go, I briefly fought with one of them, although I don't know their true strength, but I know that you can't even beat one of them if you go." ”
