Chapter 218: Lively Dinner
Under the icy full moon were white flowing clouds, and the airboat was shuttling through the clouds, and the second test was completely over, and only forty-three candidates were left in the airship.
Menqi was busy in the galley of the airship at this time, making delicious dishes from the unique ingredients of the Lost Wetlands.
"Haha, I'm really sorry to let you invite you to dinner." Leoli said with a grin on his face, but he didn't see any embarrassment in his cheekiness, and even picked up the knife and fork in both hands, looking like he couldn't wait to start the meal.
"I'm sorry this idiot caused you trouble." Kurapika said with a guilty face, for such a cheeky teammate, it is really indescribable.
"It's okay, food is such a thing, it's delicious to share." Ivan took a sip of his drink and said with a smile, not caring about Leoli's hypocrisy, such a lively scene couldn't help but remind him of several people in the Polestar Dormitory, it had been a long time since so many people had eaten together.
Ivan gave all the ingredients he had collected in Misle to Menqi to make a meal, and in exchange for some of the ingredients belonged to Menqi, so that he had a sumptuous dinner tonight, instead of eating an ordinary dinner like the other contestants.
"Ivan, where are you from?" Jie Yun sipped his drink and said with a puzzled expression.
"Why do you suddenly ask this?" Ivan looked strange, curious as to why Jay suddenly asked this.
"Because you don't smell the same, it's different from all of us." Jay continued.
"Stupid, of course it's different, there are people there who taste the same as everyone else." Leoli answered, not paying too much attention to what Jay said.
"No, he smells good, that's it." Jay frowned, as if wondering how to describe the scent.
"There's some food in the forest, like the smell of a picnic."
"Huh? What a strange description of you. Leoli laughed.
"I also feel a little strange, your accent is different from all of us, I should say different from everyone on this continent, there are very subtle differences." Kurapika said to Ivan as well.
"I'm from the Ezhen Continent, so it's normal to feel weird." Ivan replied, not hiding it.
"Ezhen Continent, where is that?" Jay was confused.
Since living on Whale Island, in addition to going to school, he spends his days in the company of wild animals in nature or listening to fishermen tell interesting stories about the outside world.
But it's just the surrounding things, coupled with the political influence of the Nile continent, in order to prevent the turmoil and revolutionary events of the telekinesis, the affairs of other continents and the learning skills of telekinesis are basically blocked, and unless they have a certain status, they are never allowed to go to other continents.
Naturally, 99.9 percent of the people on this continent do not know that there is a continent other than the Nile continent.
"I heard that it is a food continent, and that continent is full of food, and there are many strong people living in it." Kurapika spoke.
"Hey, is that so?" Jay looked at Ivan curiously, his eyes full of longing for the unknown.
"Anyway, I've said enough, and if I say more, I'm afraid I'll be deported.
It can only be said that the world is very big, and there are many things that you need to explore by yourself, and if you say everything, it will be meaningless. Ivan said and pointed to his throat, where a strange black rune suddenly appeared.
"What's on the top of your neck?"
"This is a forbidden word, I heard that when humans from other continents go to our continent and enter our continent, they will carve mysterious runes on their throats to prohibit them from saying anything related to other continents.
Only some ancient books have recorded some clues of other continents, and there are some specific places that can be discussed, originally I thought it was fake, but it turned out to be true. Kurapika said with a shocked expression.
Silence is a special chanting spell specially developed by the Nile Continent, and its purpose is only one, to prevent people who come to the Nile Continent from saying things that should not be said, especially the intelligence of other continents and the cultivation system of telekinesis.
Whether it is the head of government of the Nile Continent, or the ten men of the dark realm, the president of the full-time hunter association, there is only one thing they want most, and that is to limit the number of telepathizers.
Unlike other continents, the Nile is the weakest continent and doesn't have too many powerful food creatures, so the demand for telekinesis is not very strong, and the thermal weapons in the hands of ordinary people alone are enough to maintain the peace of the entire continent.
The head of government or the ten bosses of the dark world are all vested interests, and they naturally defend the class of interests, and prevent the ordinary class from having powerful and strange thinking abilities, and overthrow the interest cake they jointly construct.
Once, they almost overturned, and there was a delusional character on this continent who wanted to change the old world, but it was a pity that that guy died early, and they were able to stand on the high ground again, otherwise it is really hard to say what would have happened.
This time they won't allow another rollover.
As for Nitro, the president of the Hunters' Association, he didn't want the telepathic to break the law, and he knew very well what would happen when humans had the power to override the law.
He has always held the concept of human nature and evil, and created a slight shortcut, the purpose of which is to stifle the development potential of people with mental abilities and increase the chance that ordinary people can restrain them.
As a result, the three parties work together to construct such a strange and closed continental environment at the highest level.
"Did you talk nonsense?" Menqi walked out and saw the rune on Ivan's neck, probably understanding what had just happened.
"It's just that I'm from a continent, and it's not up to the level of expulsion." Ivan smiled bitterly.
"I don't care about you." Menqi sat down, then clapped his palms, and several waiters and part-time cooks walked in from outside with plates.
Large or large plates are placed on the table, and even if the lid is not opened, you can still smell the mouth-watering delicious aroma.
The plate was opened, and the delicacies were presented in the eyes of everyone, the red lobster at the beginning, and the shrimp meat was wrapped in a golden and crispy coat.
A large juicy steak with gravy and oily shimmers in the light, and a hint of rosemary mixed with buttery aromas.
In the golden chicken soup, you can vaguely see the temptation tree mushroom and the black-bone chicken suitable for soup.
Sauce-soaked meatballs, tender tofu, creamy baked lobster, sweet glutinous rice balls······
Eventually, the sparkling white rice was placed in front of the crowd, and some bighorn bear's horn scales were sprinkled on top, which was an addictively complex taste.
All the ingredients were turned into a delicious feast in Menqi's hands, which amazed everyone and wondered when they would be able to eat.
"Let's eat." Menqi said.
When the words fell, everyone turned into gluttony in an instant, and shot at the food in front of them.
"Leoli, don't rob my lobster." Jay looked at Leoli depressedly.
"First come, first served." Leoli said proudly, but he didn't know that Kurapika had inserted the fork in his hand into the steak on his plate.
"Come on, Jay."
"Thanks, Kurapika."
"Ah, that's cunning, Kurapika." Leoli's mouth was stuffed with countless delicacies, but he still said unwillingly, but he still didn't learn his lesson, and the meat ball on the fork was targeted by Jay on the side.
"Hee-hee, I've got it." Jay struck with a scissorhand smile, leaving Leoli dejected and gray.
"Killua, don't snatch my cream-baked lobster." Jie turned his head and found that the lobster in his bowl was gone, and said helplessly.
"I don't care about you." Killua takes the lobster into his mouth, and he especially likes this sweet food.
"Be quiet when you eat." Menqi couldn't bear it anymore and roared at everyone.
"Hahaha." Ivan laughed from the sidelines.
It was a very lively dinner.
